FCA Award's Banquet & Graduation 2009

Well it has finally arrived...the 2008-2009 Frankfort Covenant Academy (FCA) Awards Banquet and Graduation! I can't believe another school year is behind us, but it is and what a GREAT year it has been! We are SOOO proud of our boys, Talon & Keegan, they have done a great job this year! Talon will join the "upper learning center" A.K.A, the high school department next year, and he is so happy about that. For some reason he is like all normal pre-teens and can't wait to hurry up and grow up, ugh! If he only knew what is ahead of him (bills, worries, more bills and more worries), he might not be so anxious, HA! We do not know what is ahead for our boys, but we pray that God will bless them and keep them! Keegan was nervous about going up on the "big stage", but he sure smiled when he got to jump up and receive his awards! All in all, we had a great banquet! --Now onto graduation, we had a great graduation too, one of the best I feel! I was asked the day before graduation by my pastor if I'd take pictures and I said "YIKES", but then I said "I'll so my best"! I so badly want to take some classes for photography so I will be able to know just what to do, when the lighting is to high or low, when the movement of your objects are going too slow or too fast, etc. I hope to be able to do that some day soon and start the photography business I have wanted to start, for years! Anyways, the singing, the playing and the guest speaker, Jonathan Heath, were all really good! The graduates all looked so nice in their caps and gowns are are now ready for the "real world". May God bless them as they head off to college and for what He has in store for them!
The awards tables all set and ready to go!
Mr. Coleman is our "new" principal, he is such a GREAT guy! We have had a wonderful school year, and this guy is one of the very reasons for that! Him and his wife have been such a blessing and wonderful asset to our school!! Thanks for all you guys have done to make our school one of the best around! Looking forward to another great year in 2009-2010!

He should be getting an A Honor Roll one too, they just missed him on that one. We totally understand, they are human too, we all make mistakes :)

What a great surprise this was, thanks so much FCA Staff for this honor!

Flag Carriers: Jordan Waggoner & Alex Fry

Keegan had the privilege of being the Bible Carrier for the "Posting of Colors" or should I say for saying the pledges (to the American & Christian flags and the Bible). Talon got to do this when he was a 2nd grader, what a great opportunity for our boys!

  3. Jody--Thanks!
    Sara--Yes I liked it that the staff voted on us as a couple too, cause I know we both have invested a lot of time into the school! It is worth it, the kids are great, well most of them anyways, HA!
